i can't stop thinking of the young men that came out for trump and the implications of it. it is super harrowing because, should it continue, gen z is on track to become the first generation to not be more progressive than the one that proceeded it. and typically speaking, you get more conservative as you get older, which is why you see boomers and gen x going for cult maga. and if a significant portion of gen z is on this train too, then literally, what's left for the progressive angle?

#depressed millennials and sensible gen zers?#and obviously plenty of millennials are on the train too just adding more fuel to the 'millennials are cringe' argument tdfxfdxrfdfrd #ec 2024 #but fuck the indoctrination at play here is super scary because it's working #and they are gonna just keep on getting it and encouraged by the older generation of fucks like elon musk #i also saw it firsthand over the summer when my boomer mom and i were at the beach #and this group of college aged boys told her they liked her MAGA hat #shoulda thrown myself in the ocean then if only i had the hindsight i do now /j #smile.txt
